I have found it is to my benefit to type out an answer, let it set to gel awhile and then go back and read it again before I post it. It is rather like counting to ten. Mama used to tell me, “Put your brain in gear before putting your mouth in motion”.:p

I'm not Jeff or TK but I would think they mean this scripture. If not, it is still a great scripture to hang your hat on.2 Peter 1:3-4 (King James Version) 3According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4Whereby are given unto…[Read more]

Gene……..I sure wish we had a place to put our chuch denomanation of the side so people could more clearly understand where you are coming from. I do tend to agree with a lot of what you have to say but I disagree about spirits not being able to enter in to a person or leave a person for that matter.Mark 5:13And forthwith Jesus gave them leave.…[Read more]

Sorry, I though the other thread was for Praise and worship songs.

~ Trinity Analysis ~I have a few thoughts or questions on this false doctrine of ‘trinity’. If you are one who is deceived into believing this false teaching, I hope you will sincerely take stock of these questions, and seek for the answers.First, consider this. This doctrine says that there are three distinct persons in one Godhead. The first thi…[Read more]

Shema Yisrael (or Sh'ma Yisroel or just Shema) (Hebrew: שמע ישראל‎; “Hear, Israel”) are the first two words of a section of the Torah (Hebrew Bible) that is a centerpiece of the morning and evening Jewish prayer services. The first verse encapsulates the monotheistic essence of Judaism: “Hear, O Israel: the Lord is our God, the Lord is One”,…[Read more]

Not much to speculate about. It says pretty clearly…..In 1 John 2:22–23, we read, “Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son. No one who denies the Son has the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also.”THIS IS THE ANTICHRIST, HE WHO DENIES THE FATHER AND T…[Read more]

Luke : 17 And He said to them, “What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?”18 Then the one whose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, “Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?” 19 And He said to them, “What things?”T…[Read more]

Raised in his perishable old body he appeared to the disciples having new abilities now.{? like to Philip being transported}God does not have a human bodyOh Nick. I know God is not a man.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 15 2009,10:50)Hi Eve, God allows manifestations of Himself to be seen but no man has seen God. God is SpiritJohn 21:11Jesus came and *took the bread and *gave it to them, and the fish likewise. 14 This is now the third time that Jesus was manifested to the disciples, after He was raised from the dead.So, Nick, you mean…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 15 2009,06:41)Hi Eve, God manifests in many ways even in His puny earthly creation.But none have seen Him as He IS invisible spirit.I have no idea what you just said but I know what that scripture says. Moses did not see God's face but he saw God's back or backside. Either that, or the scripture I posted should be thrown…

Exodus 33: 23And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.

Quote (Gene @ Sep. 12 2009,03:01)Nick……….Why do you keep thinking Judgment is some kind of death sentence it is (NOT). Judgment begins with the house of GOD , it is needful we are all judged, that does not equal condemnation to some literial Fire some where. Judgment is the greatest thing that can happen to anyone it corrects our thinking.…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 12 2009,18:37)Hi Eve, The Spirit must be given dominion within us and renew our minds according to scripture and let our mouths express the sacrifice of praise.“I Love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I l…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Sep. 08 2009,01:03)I would like to do that.  It is not me preaching from a book that condemns non-believers to death.  I do not tell the rest of the world that there is something wrong with them that only my brand of magic can cure.Perhaps if christians gave up some of their wrong nonsense, there could be even more harmony than t…[Read more]

Normally I stick with the KJV for most of my study. But this group of scriptures is just so wonderful in the Amplified Bible. I think it says it so that you clearly understand what is required to be a believer. Adhere to, trust in, rely on……if you do this you will repent, be baptised and receive the Holy Ghost. It is part of being a believer.…[Read more]

I have suffered from insomnia all my life so I don't sleep much. I don't remember having but one dream when I was young. It was a nightmare. I was in this barn with all these black cats and couldn't get out. It must not have damaged me in any way though because I now have two lovely black cats named Pepper and Shadie. Pepper will be 6 pretty soon…[Read more]
